The Narrowest Street of Prague

Vejvodova Street runs between Křížovnické náměstí (Cross Square) and Malá Strana, near famous landmarks like Charles Bridge and St. Nicholas Church. Though small, it has a great deal of character, with colorful buildings and quaint shops lining both sides. The narrowest section of the street is so tight that pedestrians have to squeeze between two buildings, making for a memorable photo opportunity. The street is easy to miss unless you know exactly where to look, but once you find it, it’s sure to make an impression.

While Vejvodova Street is a fun and interesting sight, it’s important to note that it is a pedestrian street, so it’s not ideal for those with mobility issues. Be prepared to take a few photos quickly as the street is often busy with tourists. Since it’s located in a central part of Prague, the area can be crowded, especially in high tourist season, so it’s best to visit early in the day or later in the afternoon to enjoy it in a quieter setting.

Vejvodova Street is located just steps from Charles Bridge, one of Prague’s most famous landmarks. The easiest way to reach the street is by walking from Staroměstské náměstí (Old Town Square) or Malostranské náměstí (Lesser Town Square). It’s also accessible via the Malostranská metro station (Line A), which is a 10-minute walk from the street. The central location of the street makes it easy to include in your walking tour of Prague’s historic Old Town.
